'''Abstract:'''
A year later and how far has Linked Library Data come? Outside of the Swedish National Library's LIBRIS (which already existed), the return of lcsh.info as http://id.loc.gov/authorities/ and LC's Chronicling America, not much. But entry to the Linked Data cloud might be easier than you think. This presentation will describe various projects that are out in the wild that can bridge the gap between our legacy data and the semantic web, incremental steps we can take modeling our data, why linked data matters and a demonstration of how a small template changes can contribute to the Linked Data cloud.

'''Abstract of no more than 500 words:'''
code4lib started with a half dozen library hackers and a list and it ain't like that anymore. I come to code4lib with strong opinions about why it's a positive force in my professional and personal life, but they're probably different from your opinions. I will share these opinions rudely yet succinctly to challenge everyone to think and argue about why code4lib works and what we need to do to keep it working.
